NOTES ON CHIP COMPONENT REPLACEMENT
• Never reuse a disconnected chip component.
• Notice that the minus side of a tantalum capacitor may be dam-
aged by heat.
SAFETY CHECK-OUT
After correcting the original service problem, perform the follow-
ing safety check before releasing the set to the customer:
Check the antenna terminals, metal trim, “metallized” knobs,
screws, and all other exposed metal parts for AC leakage.
Check leakage as described below.
LEAKAGE TEST
The AC leakage from any exposed metal part to earth ground and
from all exposed metal parts to any exposed metal part having a
return to chassis, must not exceed 0.5 mA (500 microamperes.).
Leakage current can be measured by any one of three methods.
1. A commercial leakage tester, such as the Simpson 229 or RCA
WT-540A. Follow the manufacturers’ instructions to use these
instruments.
2. A battery-operated AC milliammeter. The Data Precision 245
digital multimeter is suitable for this job.
3. Measuring the voltage drop across a resistor by means of a
VOM or battery-operated AC voltmeter. The “limit” indication
is 0.75 V, so analog meters must have an accurate low-voltage
scale. The Simpson 250 and Sanwa SH-63Trd are examples
of a passive VOM that is suitable. Nearly all battery operated
digital multimeters that have a 2 V AC range are suitable. (See

SECTION 1
SERVICING NOTES
UNLEADED SOLDER
Boards requiring use of unleaded solder are printed with the lead-
free mark (LF) indicating the solder contains no lead.
(Caution: Some printed circuit boards may not come printed with
the lead free mark due to their particular size)
: LEAD FREE MARK
Unleaded solder has the following characteristics.
• Unleaded solder melts at a temperature about 40 °C higher
than ordinary solder.
Ordinary soldering irons can be used but the iron tip has to be
applied to the solder joint for a slightly longer time.
Soldering irons using a temperature regulator should be set to
about 350 °C.
Caution: The printed pattern (copper foil) may peel away if
the heated tip is applied for too long, so be careful!
• Strong viscosity
Unleaded solder is more viscous (sticky, less prone to flow)
than ordinary solder so use caution not to let solder bridges
occur such as on IC pins, etc.
• Usable with ordinary solder
It is best to use only unleaded solder but unleaded solder may
also be added to ordinary solder.
NOTE OF PERFORMING THE OPERATION CHECK IN
THE STATE THAT HEAT SINK WAS REMOVED
When performing the operation check in the state that this unit was
disassembled, it is possible to perform the operation check in the
state that heat sink was removed. But don’t perform the operation
check in the long time, and perform the operation check in the
volume state as low as possible.
CAPACITOR ELECTRICAL DISCHARGE PROCESSING
When checking the board, for the electric shock prevention, con-
nect the resistors to both ends of capacitors to discharge the capaci-
tor as shown in the figure below.
Note 1: When the connector that connects the SWITCHING
REGULATOR 3L411L board (US, CND) or SWITCHING
REGULATOR 3L411W board (Except US, CND, E12) or
SWITCHING REGULATOR 3L411W-1 board (E12) to the SUB
MAIN board is disconnected before discharging, completely
finish discharging both boards, and then reconnect the connector.
If discharging is not complete, sparking may occur when
connecting the connector and cause a blown fuse.
Note 2: Be sure to discharge using a resistor of 800 Ωor higher.
(Do not discharge with a 0 Ωresistor)
Discharging at a point where excessive electric current flows
through a fuse may cause the fuse to blow.

ADVANCE PREPARATION WHEN CONFIRMING OP-
ERATION
All the units included in the HT-CT290/HT-CT291 (SA-CT290/
CT291, SA-WCT290/WCT291, remote control) are required to
confirm the operation of SA-CT290/CT291. Check in advance that
you have all the units.
NOTE OF REPLACING THE IC8104 ON THE SUB MAIN
BOARD AND THE COMPLETE SUB MAIN BOARD
When IC8104 on the SUB MAIN board and the complete SUB
MAIN board are replaced, it is necessary to spread the compound
between the SUB MAIN board and the heat sink.
Spread the compound referring to the figure below.

NOTES ON THE WIRELESS CONNECTION (LINK) AFTER
REPAIRS ARE COMPLETE
When the parts below is replaced, the wireless connection (LINK)
of the Bar speaker and Subwoofer will be disconnected.
Before returning repaired products to the customer, follow the pro-
cedure below to LINK the Bar speaker and Subwoofer.
Also, if only the Bar speaker or Subwoofer is brought in for repair
and the parts below are replaced, be sure to inform the customer
when returning the repaired products that the customer must LINK
the Bar speaker and Subwoofer.
(Indicate that the LINK procedure is described in the operating
instructions)
Parts in which the LINK will be disconnected due to re-
placement:
• Complete SUB MAIN board
• BLUETOOTH MODULE (WB116A Y) (Ver C)
Activating wireless transmission between specific units
(Secure Link)
2Hold down CLEAR AUDIO+ for
5 seconds.
The USB and TV indicators flash
two times, then the MOVIE and
MUSIC indicators flash
alternately.
When the Bar Speaker is linked to
the subwoofer, the indicators stop
flashing and the power indicator on
the subwoofer lights up in orange.
If it failed, the indicators light up for
5 seconds. Try again the above
operation.
To deactivate this function, hold
down CLEAR AUDIO+ for
5seconds.
The USB indicator flashes twice.
You can specify the wireless connection
to link the Bar Speaker to the subwoofer
using the Secure Link function. This
function can help prevent interference if
you use multiple wireless products.
1Press LINK on the rear of the
subwoofer.
The power indicator on the
subwoofer flashes in orange.
THE ON/STANDBY INDICATOR FLASHES IN RED
If the power indicator flashes in red,
press Æon the subwoofer to turn
o the power and check whether
the ventilation opening of the
subwoofer is blocked or not.
